‘The American Frank’ is my way of saying right now I’m writing for the American Chronicle, which is perfect for me. I intend to present here excerpts from my articles in that online magazine. ‘The American Frank’ also means I have always been pro-American when it comes to literature and language and ideals. Here’s the current list of my articles published by the American Chronicle; click the link somewhere on the page.
